Welcome to Ship’s Quarters Farm ..

..A special place where the gently rolling fields form an important part of equestrian history. Originally established by a retired naval captain and his wife, Ship’s Quarters became a mecca for the 3-Day Eventing world during the late 1970’s-80’s. Some of the best Event riders have ridden over this rolling terrain, to include the screening trial for the 1976 Olympics!

Ship’s Quarters Farm occupies 85 acres in beautiful Westminster, Maryland. It is surrounded by agricultural lands and Hunt Country and is also convenient to Carroll, Baltimore and Frederick counties as well as Pennsylvania.
